Republicans in the U.S. Senate blocked a bill last Thursday that included another extension of weekly benefits. Republicans cited that it would add $30 billion to the deficit. What does that mean?
Those in Ohio that are currently on unemployment could lose their weekly amount through their federal extensions. It also means that those that lose their job moving forward can still apply for unemployment and receive the standard 26 week compensation but will not be eligible to apply for an extension.
With many reports stating that job opportunities are not likely to improve or open up any time soon. This will become a major financial burden on families and the State of Ohio.

In studying and researching many different items in and around the city we find a wide variety of things we just did not know about Carlisle. For instance, did you know that it is illegal to have more than 3 dogs in Carlisle? CHAPTER 1272 Supplementary District Regulations states that "No person shall keep or harbor more than three
dogs
, excluding puppies less than four months old, in any single-family dwelling, or in any separate suite in a two-family dwelling or apartment dwelling, within the Municipality."
Another interesting law is in CHAPTER 618 Animals and more specifically 618.06 Coloring rabbits and baby poultry; sale or display of poultry. So those of you looking to color your rabbits and chickens this summer are prohibited from doing so. If you do feel the urge to color your pet rabbit the result could be...Whoever violates this section is guilty of a misdemeanor of the fourth degree on a first offense; each subsequent offense is a misdemeanor of the third degree.
Another "Did You Know" came in the mail this past week in the City Newsletter. According to Section 660.13 of the City of Carlisle Code of Ordinances it specifically prohibits disposing grass clippings on the street. Violators could be charged with a minor misdemeanor and face possible fines. To read more of the newsletter check it out by clicking here.

As seen on the school's website, carlisleindians.org, Carlisle has released a statement about the District's Financial Update for Carlisle Local Schools in Carlisle, Ohio. Here is the statement from the school.
District Treasurer Jerry Ellender said that the District is in the best financial shape its been in for over a decade but the concern now is declining State support for the District. The State provides over half the financial support for the District and the local taxpayers provide the rest. The State reduced their funding by 1% this year and will reduce it again by 2% next year.
The District balanced its budget in FY09 with a combination of cutting expenditures and increasing revenue by opening enrollment at all buildings. But the District's expenses continue to rise with inflation while the revenues are flat to declining. This means that even though we have money right now, it will run out within the next couple of years. (See Five-Year Forecast on Treasurer page for details)
The big concern now is what will happen in the next biennium State budget when the Federal stimulus dollars run out. The current year and next school years' state budgets were propped up by Federal stimulus dollars and there will be a big hole in the State budget for the next biennium without that Federal support. This could translate into school funding cuts in the State budget which will hurt our District since we rely on the State for half our support.
The local taxpayers have been doing their part in supporting the District, but now the State is reducing their share, and this places more needs for funding the District on the local taxpayer.
Carlisle Local Schools has an annual budget of about $15 million.The revenue sources for the District are approximately $8 million is State funding, $4.8 million in property taxes, $1.7 million in income taxes and the rest is made up of student fees and miscellaneous revenue. The district operates on the minimum legal property tax level for school districts of 20 mils, and a 1% School Income Tax plus the State Foundation funding.

This past Friday, the Carlisle Local Schools Pee Wee Football program kicked off their summer mini camps for the first time ever. Never before in the past has Carlisle ran mini camps for the little ones in the summer months leading up to the football season. After finding out that it was permissible to hold off season camps, Coach Reynolds has planned a weekly session for the 1st-6th grade teams. There was an astounding 89 kids out for the first camp. Each grade level had all their coaches out to help and assist for the two hour session. The players learned fundamentals and conditioning techniques during the 2 hours. The next scheduled mini camp is this coming Sunday, June 13 at the Pee Wee Football field from 6:00-8:00pm.
